has anyone else heard this?

" We were told that with post-placement registrations or post-placement reports being late, court dates for those Americans scheduled to adopt are being postponed. They are postponed until the overdue materials are submitted, even though those adopting have nothing to do with those who are late with reports or post-placement registrations. Apparently the Russians are really cracking down like never before."

or

"I have been told now is that the Russians are basically saying they will start holding up court dates. Frankly, its not clear to me if they have already done so or are just in the threatening stage. But yes, this is supposedly actually being threatened or is seriously at least being put forth by the Russians. I have not confirmed this with adoptive parents to be as of yet so I really do not have further information. Just that what is being said is that the Russians are very, very upset now over the recent injury to the special needs child and that along with the previous deaths, its having a ripple effect. My suggestion, you have to confirm and ask your agency what is going on and also we need to see if any PAP's report a specific instance of identifiable court delay. Advise post if you here more or find out more specifics"

"I adopted thru XX, the women who own this agency are all Native Russians, the woman who is President of our agency sent an in-house memo about 10 days ago saying that their source in Moscow related the fact of late and missing paperwork referred to as PPR was the hang-up in agencies not getting reaccredidated. All of you can take this informatuion for what it is. Am not saying its gospel, however as various agencies continue to wait for that elusive certificate it only makes sense"

I pulled these off of another board, the people that made the statements were kinda enough to also give their agencies names (which we cannot post here).

I need to know if anyone else has come accross this ? I finally have a lead on an agency that might be able to help me get my kids home, and now I hear this...and of course the agency that I thought mught be able to help me is one of the above agencies.

So, if you have heard any of this from your agencies, please please post here and let me know.

Thanks for your help!
